Mark Reads The Two Towers; Shelob's Lair

It's finally here! Explanation:

Back in January, my friend Ingrid introduced me to the wonderful Mark Oshiro of Mark Reads/Watches (and recently, Plays).

Since then, I've spent many, many, many hours going through his reviews on Harry Potter, American Gods, The Princess Bride, and most importantly, and most shared with Ingrid: The Lord of the Rings.

In May he started doing these videos for charity, where he will read fan fiction, bad fiction, or anything he has read before. In June he started selling them for $25 each, because they were so popular, and he has quit his other job to run his sites full time.

I sneakily discussed this with Ingrid, asking what she would like him to read. She came up with Shelob's Lair, which is a horrible, scary chapter in The Lord of the Rings.

And here we go! Happy Birthday Ingrid! Her birthday isn't until November 8th, but that is details.

Weekend, weekend

 Started The Lord of the Rings, realised I haven't read this in at least three years, probably four...

 Went to parents, helped wash the car, watched The Holy Grail, had wine and brie with syrup

 Went to two art installationy things for the student newspaper, will edit photos soon,

introduction out in the SNOW (zoom in (that is not rain, that is snow))

Met Ida, had wine, looked at art

I also went to a photography talk at a photo fair with my dad, went to Hella for a walk with Christine and her neighbour's dog Zenta, went out with Dixie and ran into my latin-americans and also my cousin, did lots of laundry (the day after, of course), planned London, and went for a walk with Viktoria. And still I managed to slump around catching up on Mark Reads LOTR (only the chapters I've read), drinking hot teas and toddies and generally doing as little as possible.
